When I was small you could have wellies in one colour, black.
Now anything goes. Ive seen some with a beautifully soft leather lining and a price tag that would stop you from wearing them and getting them dirty. 
So whats your choice, mines green  |

Mine are green, the cheapest I can buy as I am a tight git..... Trouble is they split approx every 12 months at the back
Until recently I am embarrased to say I used to only possess one pair of shoes  Which I used to try and make last for three/four years I never wear trainers. I now possess four pairs of shoes but am still a tight git
Sorry.... I went off the subject a bit there. |

I learned a long long time ago you get what you pay for (not rubbing it in of course )

WhenI bought them, I put a photo on here, not sure I'll find it now though |

| I used to wear Hunters, not the mega expensives ones, but they never had any grip to the soles and it took about 4 pairs before I realized it was the wellies and not me that was the problem. They are comfy tho and look nice but I just go for the cheapies these days |

Layla, do the outers last as long as the leather lining? |

I have blue Hunters but want some Le Chameau neoprene ones because my feet get really cold and wet in Hunters. I do have some posh waterproof leather ones though.........  |

That is why I have gone over to safety wellies - they are much stronger and don't fall apart so quickly. Mine are Dunlop Acifort and now nearly 3 years old - perfect condition still. Much better value than even the cheapest ordinary ones. These ones
